Description:

This rustic variety, supporting harsh climatic conditions (cold, humidity), is recommended for freezing and canning. Its very straight pods, 12-13 cm in length, remain very green and fleshy after transformation.

Advice Vilmorin :

To successfully sow, sow sunny exposure in a light, healthy and properly warmed soil because the beans fear the cold.
Pick your beans either at the net stage when the pods are young or at the mangetout stage just before the grains form because this variety does not take wire, even at an advanced stage.

Culture advice:

1. Sows: Sow from late April to July 4 to 5 seeds in small shallow holes (called poquets) 40 cm apart, or in lines 40 cm apart by sowing a seed every 5 cm. Be careful not to bury your seeds more than 2-3 cm deep. A few days after lifting, lightly work the soil on the surface (binez) to eliminate possible weeds and aerate the soil.
2. Buttage: When your bean feet are 10 to 12 cm long, bin a second time and then bring some soil back to the feet of your beans.
3. Harvest: Harvest from July to September.

Plants:

Beans like the proximity of the savory which has a protective action against aphids.
